What would a dealer gain from not sending a customers warranty info to Mercury? I am certain Mercury wants to rid me of my last dollar and marketing crap by mail is kinda expected if you know what I mean.. They don't know I exist, yet..

The dealer risks losing his dealer status with MERCURY. And my feathers weren't ruffled. I tried buying a new engine years back, and that was the line I got from every dealer I tried to get one from. So I rebuilt my EVINRUDE and made it a 225+. Ended up working out better in the end anyways as a new engine wouldn't have moved like mine did when I dropped the hammer(then again, my fuel gauge moved like it wouldn't have with a new engine either).
